THREADS

Her fingers crossed between the needles
the  ball rolling down the  feet

she would  knit with more warmth than the wool
to protect many who were yet in cradles

it would wrap on random skin she would not know
but did she care?
she knew that winter was harsh 
and that her dead skin would show. 

with no price tag attached
she would sell in the market 
her love knitted in yarns

the malls are bright no doubt
but you would not find this lady there 
though it shall be full of crowd
